Alex Rios had a hit, he was the only base runner of the game for the White Sox. They left one man on base and that was it.

In the tenth Baxter had an RBI single to win the game. This was a very well pitched game on both sides with not much offensive action.

The Mets record improved to 13-16 and the White Sox record dropped to 13-18. The two teams will play game two of their brief two game series on Wednesday night
